It's nice to see Emperor Eck is now a leading authority on tide, wind and wave power - ffs he sounds like a bloke in a pub.

The fact is we live and feed off a capitalist world, Alex Salmond though like Norway will keep control of our future resources and the wealth that brings, a little socialism does no harm. Lowering the business tax will attract the big boys of business, American, Chinese etc. Scotland will financially sustain itself. Dusty the consultation on the referendum comes first then the real debate comes after that.

Nidge our Social problem is only around the 400,000 mark, England's is around the 3.4million mark, so when England don't have our resources to pay for their 3.4 million giro's how are they going to find that kind of money to pay for all your alcoholics and fatties :?:

Nidge there is no substance from you concerning the real debate on independence, you are an embarrsement to your nation, you are the reason for some to vote YES TO INDEPENDENCE :wink: :wink:

Just remember one thing :wink:

Americans hate you's whilst loving us Scots and our sense of identity, what identity do you englanders have other than thinking you are superior to all, British Empire my ass :lol: :lol: :lol: The Americans where going to wipe you's out in the 1930s just before ww2 :wink: Freemasons rule America, Scotland hosts the capital of the Freemason world, the highest order is the order of the Thistle then comes the Scottish Grand order, if Scotland becomes independent the Americans will be quite happy to base all of their European operations in Scotland, England will become insignificant :lol:

Come back with a better strategy if you have the KNOWLEDGE !!!



I don't give two f**cks whether the Yanks like us or not they are the same as you Jocks, "Pedantic."

Perhaps you should campaign for their annihilation as well as ours?
Who else would you like to expel or exterminate from your green and pleasant land?
Is there anyone you don't feel superior to?

Was this your scout troup?

The question up for debate today as part of the Consultation was Should 16&17year olds be allowed the vote :?:

My response was YES of course they should :D

We live in a modern world what with Technology and Social Networking, today's 16&17 year olds are more intellegent than the 16&17 year olds of the past, what i'm saying is they are more politically aware and especially on the matter of constitutional change.

This vote is not about changing the past but changing the future, their future, as a 47 year old i'm voting YES for their future n even their childrens future.

As long as the Pro independence parties talk in the language of the masses i have no doubt that 16&17 year olds will fully understand what it is they are voting for.

What do you think YES/NO

But England's population is ten times Scotland's, so Scotland has the bigger 'social problem'?

And here's me thinking that the case for Scottish independence was based on a sense of moral superiority?

I mean, when Alex Salmond lectured London last week didn't he say:

"An independent Scotland could be a beacon for progressive opinion south of the border and further afield..." [-(

http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2012 ... ng-lecture

So I thought one argument for Scottish independence was to get rid of 'English' dominance and nuclear weapons, yet you want the USA to use Scotland as a giant aircraft carrier instead? :shock:

If you want Scotland to become independent then I'd advise keeping your head down.

Are you sure you've thought this through, Dougie?

And as a 47-year-old you want 16 & 17 year-olds to have the vote? :roll:

Incidentally, you're only slightly younger than me, but I'm not sure whether that fills me with joy or dread :-|

You truly are a nutjob.

It's because it's about the future that they shouldn't be allowed to vote. It's too important for them to get wrong.


Were I 16 now, I'd probably vote yes. But I'd be wrong. That says it all.

What we're talking about isn't independence.

We would still be subordinate to a bigger authority. Europe.

We would be investing our monetary control abroad. And wouldn't our Scots voice be barely audible over the clamour for European integration and empire building.

We would still have the discredited honours system propping up privilege. And we'd still have the monarchy, an anachronism promoted to ensure prevailing vested interests.

In short, what is proposed is not independence. It's about taking control away from Westminster and handing it to the clique in Holyrood for them to squander as they see fit, and for their own political advantage.

It's absolute folly.

Given that I am part English, aren't we all, why would I want to break away from the many family and friends I have living elsewhere in the UK, with whom I share a common purpose and goals, and when we're already adequately represented within the UK's bigger voice in Europe.

The SNP gambit is little more than out of date 20th century wish politics, which have no credence in a globalised world that is coming together, not splitting apart.

But I welcome the vote opportunity. Because, with their flagship policy defeated there will be no further need for the SNP. They can disband and we will all benefit from that.

So the vote really is to end the existence of the Scottish Nasty Party.

=D>
